*Sometimes I'm not sure if I'm asleep or awake, My dreams are real and reality is fake. What I think is real might be wrong, Perhaps I've been deceived all along. Maybe I'll wake up if this is a dream, And realize that nothing is how it once seemed. There are times when I just feel- Like nothing in my life is real. Perhaps I'll wake up after I die- And see that my whole life was a lie. Maybe not even reality is real, Sometimes it seems abstract and surreal. My life is terrible, too awful to be true, So can it be real? I wish I knew. This surreal life I can't escape, What if I'm not even awake? My whole life could be a dream, Trapped in my mind, reality unseen. If my life is a dream, don't wake me yet. I want to live a life I'll never forget.*

Living with dissociation, you begin to wonder... About the things you have never dared to think of before. Both condemning and relieving.
